“Tŷ Gwyn is a delightful little cottage, and we had a very comfortable week.”

It was warm and cosy to come back to after a bracing walk along the stunning Aberdovey beach, and had everything we needed for our holiday. It is in a great location - close enough to wander down to the seafront and the many little shops and cafes, but also within very easy reach of beautiful countryside and coastal walks. Although the cottage sleeps four, two + a dog felt about right. Very nice to have a car park pass too, which saved us quite a bit of money. Thanks for everything!

“A lovely comfortable cottage,very close all ameanaties.”

Parking for us was ok but could be a problem at busy times.The one thing that was difficult for us there was no where for the dog to go.There is a small yard at the back,but this is out of bounds.Our dog won't go on the lead she waits till she gets home.Other than that Aberdovey is a great place full of lovely people.We would hope to return.

“When booking online it’s comforting to get communication that confirms things are booked.”

Beautiful cottage , amazing having a dishwasher and a washing machine! Lovely and warm.

- Mrs Gooding, October 2018

“Lovely cottage.”

Warm, clean, everything you need is there. Beds were comfy too which was wonderful. Train line nearby but never a problem. Quiet road too. Parking permit was useful with car park a short walk away and included other town car parking too. Welcome milk, bread and butter too. Beautiful area of the country to explore. Definitely will go again.

“We were warned about the steep stairs but did find them a problem as we are not particularly mobile.”

..we were disappointed in the operation of the shower,,found it difficult to control...and the TV was'nt the best. .....

- Mr Stanton, October 2018

“The cottage was lovely and in a fantastic location, being less than 5 minutes walk to a fabulous beach and pretty high street.”

I would recommend this holiday property.
Aberdovey is very pretty, however could do with more eating places, especially in the evening.

“It would really help to have a plan of each holiday accommodation offered on your website.”

For disabled or less mobile tourists it can be crucial as to whether the bathroom is on the same floor as the bedroom, and whether there is a toilet on the ground floor. We had to take a gamble and luckily it worked out OK.
Ty Gwyn is very well refurbished with really careful attention to detail retaining much of the original character and atmosphere of the cottage - both stylish and relaxed. It is much bigger inside than it appears outside. It is well equipped and comfortable and the owners provided some essential supplies (milk, butter and bread) on our arrival which was very welcome. There is also a parking permit for use at various carparks in the region, which was very useful. The wi-fi has a strong signal. The owners provide a very practical guide to the cottage with clear instructions on every aspect of the stay, as well as useful information about local services and amenities.
Copperhill Street itself is rather noisy, but also within easy walking distance to the whole town, harbour and beach.

- Ms Vowles, July 2018

“Very cosy cottage in a beautiful, unspoilt part of Wales
The cottage had everything you needed & the owners David & Kathy were helpful & friendly.”

Would definitely recommend this cottage & Aberdyfi. Diolch yn fawr.

“Lovely cottage, well equipped and ideal for a weekend break by the seaside !”

- Mr Colyer, June 2018

“This was our first experience of Sykes Cottages and we will certainly be looking again to book.”

The cottage was very comfortable - lovely clean bedding and towels and the location was superb. We had a truly memorable holiday and hope to book again .

“Parking permit was a real bonus, otherwise a long walk or a big parking bill.”

- Mr Gilbert, September 2017

“The cottage was very comfortable and in a good location for local amenities.”

- Ms Hill, September 2017

“We found Ty Gwyn to be a comfortable base from which to explore the town of Aberdovey and the surrounding area.”

It's ideally placed near to the shops, pubs and harbour and of course the fantastic beach. There were numerous leaflets and suggestions of things to do and places to visit while the cottage itself offers everything you need for a relaxing stay and the welcome pack provided was much appreciated.

- Mr Barron, August 2017

“The cottage was in a perfect setting and only a few minutes walk from the sea front.”

We immediately felt at home upon arrival and are looking forward to staying again soon

- Mr Gray, March 2017

“Dog friendly & close to beach/shops”

We stayed for a week in beautiful Aberdovey.
The cottage was clean, well maintained with all mod cons including Wi Fi, dishwasher and a superb kitchen.
The cottage is decorated in the beachcomber style. It does have a small upstairs shower room, with basin and toilet. This did take some manoeuvring, and was a challenge for my son as he's tall. The bedrooms, a double and a twin were very comfortable. Bedding is provided and plenty of fluffy towels.
The owner lives a couple of doors down, and is very helpful and knowleable, suggesting days out etc.
Parking in Aberdovey is in the main sea front car park. The owner provides a car park permit for free parking. We hardly drove at all, except for a visit to the local Co Op and a day out.
This cottage is superbly appointed central to the beach, shops and pubs and restaurants. We loved our stay.

The picturesque harbour village of Aberdovey is renowned for its mild climate, sandy beaches, sailing and a championship 18-hole links golf course (rated in the UK's top 100). The village is often referred to as “an artist's paradise” with its pastel-coloured cottages, small shops, inns and excellent restaurants which specialise in local seafood, all helping to create a relaxed welcoming atmosphere. Aberdovey boasts some of the finest beaches in Britain, with four miles of golden sand-dune-backed shoreline running north to Tywyn, home of the world-famous Talyllyn Steam Railway and crab fishing. The beaches are popular with sunbathers, swimmers, surfers and fishermen while the estuary attracts a wide range of watersports enthusiasts. The peaks of the Cader Idris and Aran Fawddwy ranges are within easy reach and are complemented by the charm of the Dovey and Dysynni valleys nearby. An ideal area for walkers, climbers and wildlife watchers, and a wonderful all-year-round location.
